I Am Learning to Count in Twos

We have been learning to count in twos. We usually do it in the morning when we look at the calendar. We played this game on the ipad today.

"I am good at counting in 2s. I do not need the numbers to help me, I can do it with my eyes shut. Now I need to practise counting backwards in 2s."

I Am Learning to Sound Out Words That Begin With Blends

We have been using the ipads to listen and find the sounds in words beginning with blends.

"I had to listen to the word and then find the letters that make that sound. It is easy."

Fantastic Frogs

As a follow up to our poem ‘Frog Song’ and our Big Book, we sketched frogs. We coloured them with pastels. We then had fun drawing flies and sticking on wobbly eyes. We think they look cool!

When I Grow Up

We have had lots of visitors from our community who have talked to us about their jobs. We wrote a story about what we would like to be when we grow up.

"The tricky words were,they, grow and jail, but I can spell lots of words by myself now. I think I did a good job of drawing my picture." 

I Am Learning to Read A Book on the Computer

During Reading time we have turns of the computer. We read the PM Readers. We read the same colour as the books we read with Mrs Grainger. We listen to the story first, then we do the activities. We try to get 4 coloured animals at the bottom of the screen. This shows we have answered the questions correctly the first time. A grey animal shows we had to try again to get the correct answer.

"I read 'Sam plays Swingball'. I chose this because we had read it in class with Mrs Grainger. I like this story. I got four colourd cats because I matched the words and pictures correctly."
